Joan, I'm not sure if our family is the same, I know Francis had a son Bennett and three daus., Martha, Alley and Hester. Do you know if he had a son named John. I have a John born 1790 in Wayne, (Dobbs) NC. I haven't been able to fine much on him. His wife was Edney. They lived in Wayne Co. from at least 1810 to after 1850. In the 1860 census they wee living in Duplin Co. and died sometime after 1860. Can you help any on this line. If there is anything I can check on here let me know. Thanks, Donna
